What a great line-up. I can't wait for this Congress. This is what I'm talking about as far as what a Salsa Congress should be.

Is anyone attending??..would like to know

Yeah, I know lots of people that will be there. :lol:

So I attended for my 3rd year in a row the Congress. Every year it's different, but to me it's fun fun fun!!!!

Just curious to know is anyone assisting on Tuesday night????? It would be nice to meet new people and dance.

I have to say, since I'm a On1 dancer and a newbie (because I dont practice that much) I was intimidated. This always happens to me on the first night I attend. I just need to practice.

If anyone is going to be there, just let me know.!!!
